A six o'clock feeling

It was time for Jenny to go home with her mother, all the way in the tram car through the haunted November twilight of Edinburgh across the Dean Bridge. Sandy waved from the window, and wondered if Jenny, too, had the feeling of leading a double life, fraught with problems that even a millionaire did not have to face. It was well-known that millionaires led double lives. The evening paper rattle-snaked its way through the letter box and there was suddenly a six o'clock feeling in the house. [19]
